THE GOODS SHED

The Goods Shed dates back to Victorian times and is a fitting centrepiece for the museum. Beautifully restored and packed with genuine and original railway memorabilia, it is a trip down memory lane for many and a lovely taster of times gone by for others.

Originally built to cater for the increase in freight traffic, the Goods Shed is a popular venue for private events, functions, corporate entertainment and wedding receptions. It accommodates up to 150 people making it an unusual and ideal choice for a memorable occasion.

If you are visiting the museum and particularly wish to look around the Goods Shed, please ring the museum reception before setting out on 01206 242524 to ensure it is open.
